1) Priorities

Discuss your preferences with your spouse. Tell each other what your priorities are. If you feel like you have not set up any priorities, then it is time for you to set up one. Setting your priorities help you to stay focus. There might be fundamental differences in priorities.

The only way to know each other’s preferences is to talk about it. Have a thorough discussion and say what your preferences are. This way, the journey forward will be a lot more manageable and enjoyable since both partners will have the same mindset.

3) Leave your work at the office.

That is how it should be, You will have your working time at your office and once you are done with your work, leave it there. What I mean with this is, after one tiring day at the office, once you have stepped out from the office, please leave whatever that is related to work there. Don’t bring it home. To talk about it with your spouse is different.

You have to set your mind up like this, work is work, and family is family. Only then you’ll have a balanced work and personal life. Your spouse will be happy, your family will be happy AND you’ll be happier! 😉
